Soybean root and stem rot caused by the oomycete is a destructive disease worldwide that can affect plants at any growth stage. The use of resistant cultivars is the most effective method of controlling the disease. Therefore, monitoring changes in the population of regarding the dynamics of avirulence genes capable of overcoming resistance genes () is important to reduce yield losses and to enhance the effectiveness of the genes. Forty isolates of sampled from a region of high incidence of soybean root and stem rot in Brazil were characterized using 14 soybean differentials, and 28 pathotypes were identified. Compared with a study conducted a decade ago, there was a major shift in pathotype diversity and complexity toward both higher numbers of different pathotypes and of avirulence genes in a given individual in the current population of . . Breeding programs aiming at developing soybean cultivars with resistance to root and stem rot should consider the high variability in the population of . and seek for strategic deployment of genes and germplasm.

Chronic complete spinal cord injury (SCI) is difficult to treat because of scar formation and cavitary lesions. While human iPS cell-derived neural stem/progenitor cell (hNS/PC) therapy shows promise, its efficacy is limited without the structural support needed to address cavitary lesions. Our study investigated a combined approach involving surgical scar resection, decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) hydrogel as a scaffold, and hNS/PC transplantation.

Background: Adventitious root (AR) formation is the key step for successful cutting propagation of tea plants (Camellia sinensis L.). Studies showed that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF) can promote the rooting ability, and auxin pathway in basal stem of cuttings was involved in this process.

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is the most common inherited blood disorder worldwide, impacting millions and imposing severe healthcare challenges, particularly in resource-limited regions. Current treatments have variable efficacy and require lifelong adherence. Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation can be curative but comes with significant side effects and limited donor availability limits its widespread applicability.

Petroleum hydrocarbon pollutants in soil are challenging to biodegrade, negatively impacting plant growth as well as the metabolic activity and community structure of soil microorganisms. Microorganisms immobilized by seed carriers can synergistically contribute to the remediation of petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated soil. We prepared a rape seed carrier with immobilized microorganism by seed coating (with a mixture of diatomaceous earth and bentonite as fillers) and microbial immobilization.
